Securing a Child Restraint in a Rear
Outside Seat Position or the
Second Row Center Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH) on page 1-44.
For vehicles with a third, fourth or fifth row, there are no
top tether anchors in the rear outside seat positions
of the third, fourth or fifth row. Do not secure a child seat
in these positions if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be anchored, or if the instructions that
come with the child restraint say that the top tether
must be anchored.
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.
1. Put the child restraint on the seat.
2. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
